I really never thought of this, but I use a mix of styles, each has its own
advantages. The open-backs allow for extensive photo taking of scenes
inside the buliding (if you have a small web-cam, that is) while the
realistic style is just awe-inspiring to others if executed well (as many
people here tend to do). Then again, the lego-style buildings do not look
as impressive on the outside, and the realistic-style buildings are tricky
to photo scenes on the inside (unless you photo during the construction,
which I have tried before). Please let me know if you plan to publish your
town on the internet, I will place it in the Open Directory.
